Packs

1. 01

   When the pack is bought: ticket = floor(float(0) × 1,000,000), one of a million tickets, from your own seed pair at the nonce of that moment, like a case pull.

2. 02

   A pack lists its prizes from most to least valuable, each with a number of tickets, handed out in that order: the first prize owns tickets 0 … t₀−1, the second the next t₁, and so on.

3. 03

   multiplier = floor(prize value × 10,000 ÷ pack price) ÷ 10,000. Paid = price paid × multiplier.

4. 04

   An opened pack's receipt names the seed pair and the nonce it was bought under. Once that pair is revealed the ticket can be worked out again. Revealing a pair while packs bought under it are still sealed tells you what they hold; they are yours either way.

float(k) and the rest of the notation are defined in the byte stream.

A pack has a price and a list of prizes, each with its chance printed beside it, to four decimals of a percent. Buying a pack is the bet: what is in it is drawn at that moment, from your own seed pair, and nothing changes it afterwards.

A pack you have bought is yours, sealed, until you open it: now, next month, or never. What it holds is set aside for you from the moment you buy it. How you open it (slowly, fast, half and then the other half) is a way of looking and changes nothing.

A prize is paid at its listed value, in the coin the pack was bought with: the price paid × (prize value ÷ pack price). It is kept as an item, or paid to your balance if that is how your prizes are paid. Nothing is shipped.

Every pack is built to return about 96% of its price on average; the exact figure is printed on the pack. The other 4% is the house's. No pack holds a prize above the site's $250,000 maximum payout.

Up to ten packs at a time, and up to 200 sealed at once. A sealed pack cannot be sold back, given away or exchanged: the house knows what is in it, so any price it offered would say so.

Buying a pack is a bet like any other: your limits, a break or an exclusion stop it. Opening packs you already own is never stopped, and "Open all" credits what they hold at once, without the show. A bonus balance cannot buy a pack.
